Can someone tell me how I can get a page(any page) on the Internet to
refresh automatically every 5 minutes. I was thinking along the lines of
having a HTML file on my C-drive with JavaScript to do so. It should be
possible, Right?
I don't know much about JavaScript.
Thanks for the help.

you could build a framepage
and refresh a frame (theirs) from another hidden one(yours)
something like:
function reload1(){
document.parent .frame[1].location.reloa d()
setTimeout("rel oad1()",300000)
}
setTimeout("rel oad1()",300000)
not tested !!!

It's not javascript and I don't know which browsers support it but
you can put the following in the header:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="600">
Mike Johnston
You can also use the meta tag in the head ie. <meta http-equiv="refresh"
content="number of seconds"; url="nextpage.h tml>"
<html><head><ti tle>a title</title>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content=300>
</head>

Try something like this:
--- reloader.html ---
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/frameset.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Reloader !</title>
</head>
<frameset rows="30, *">
<frame name="input" src="reloaderIn put.html">
<frame name="page" src="about:blan k">
</frameset>
</html>
------
--- reloaderInput.h tml ---
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/frameset.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>input</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
var interval = undefined;
function go(){
parent.frames['page'].location.href= document.forms[0].elements['url'].value; }
function start(form) {
if (interval) {clearInterval( interval);}
var time = parseFloat(form .elements['time'].value);
interval = setInterval(go, Math.floor(time *1000));
go();
}
function stop() {
if (interval) {
clearInterval(i nterval);
interval=undefi ned;
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div>
<form target="page" action="" onsubmit="start (this);return false;">
<label for="url">URL:< input type="text" id="url"></label>
<label for="time">Freq uency in seconds<input type="text"
id="time"></label> <input type="submit" value="Go!">

Refreshing an entire page on an interval doesn't require scripting it can
be accomplished with a straight HTML META tag, the exact syntax of which
escapes me at the moment.
<META REFRESH='60000' > Something like that. Anyone have the exact syntax?
